The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer scored 21.74 ot of 36 points

(Acceptable). It has an active bonnet and the car was tested with the
bonnet in the deployed position. On the bonnet surface, the
protection offered to a pedestrian's head was good or adequate
almost everywhere. Some poor results were recorded at the base of
the windscreen and on the stiff windscreen pillars. The front edge of
the bonnet performed well towards the centreline of the vehicle but
gave poor results elsewhere. The bumper offered good protection to
pedestrians' legs and scored maximum points. (Tested by Euro NCAP v7)

* ANCAP safety ratings do not automatically extend to variants that have different body
styles, engine configurations, driven wheels or occupant restraint systems (e.g. fewer
airbags). In these cases, ANCAP considers technical evidence submitted by manufacturers
before deciding on extending a rating to additional variants of a model. For further
information about the application of ANCAP safety ratings to model variants, see the ANCAP
Variant Policy.
^ The Rating Year denotes the year requirements against which a vehicle has been
assessed. The Rating Year is determined by ANCAP and may be based on the year in
which a new vehicle model is first launched into the Australian and/or New Zealand markets;
the year in which the vehicle was tested (if tested by Euro NCAP); or, for vehicles which hold
an existing ANCAP safety rating, the year in which the rating was updated (or earlier
applicable year).
